BRIDGTON — Bridgton Art Guild artists have donated beautiful works for their Aug. 2 auction, “Maine – The Way Art Should Be.”
Paintings, photography, ceramics, jewelry and sculpture reflect scenes and interpretations of Maine.
A special aspect of this year’s FUNdraiser is that proceeds from the auction will go to buy a clean-burning, fuel-efficient heat pump system for the gallery. The new system will replace an ancient boiler system. The gallery is an art co-op where artists volunteer, pay rent, run the store and even paint the walls.
The fun starts on Friday, Aug. 2 with a preview/reception at 5 p.m. and bidding action commences at 6:15 p.m. The biennial auction is a not-to-be-missed event that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s a fun-filled, non-stuffy affair. Guests at the auction can enjoy a lively evening and take home some amazing artwork, while helping keep the heat on this winter.
For a preview of works to be auctioned, stop into Gallery 302 at 112 Main St. For more information call 207-647-2787 or visit gallery302.com.
